Grandpa Comes to Visit

So the end of October was a very busy time around our house, but it was busy in a great way.  First and for most, my dad came to visit for two weeks.  It was so fun to have him stay with us.  He also happens to be an awesome house guest.  He is very low maintenance.  Basically, he spends the whole day working and cooking in the kitchen and then loves to watch action movies in the evening.  How great is that?!

I am not exaggerating when I say that within the first day of being here, he had gone through my fridge and cut and cleaned all my veggies, helped me with the final harvest and cleaning up of my garden, made salsa and I'm sure a soup as well.  Pretty much all I did was take him to the grocery store to buy food and he was cooking up a storm and cleaning up the rest of the time.  My dad is so cute and loves to cook so much.  What a great blessing he is to share his culinary talents with us.

Here he is teaching Paige how to make pot stickers.  He even brought her a little plastic mold to help her shape her pot stickers.

 

Cooking is just one of my dad's great talents another one is soccer.  It rained almost every day he was here so we had to go "indoor" for some soccer skills training.

 

He also to go to an awards breakfast at Ashley's school.  She won an award for good character.
